Very useful, thanks a lot!
You welcome! 😀
Such a beautiful country! Nice guide for all the drone newbies :) Keep the hard work!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for making it so easy bro. I got a dji mini 2 and then I saw some videos talking about how difficult it was to register. Thank you for making it easy to follow man. I’m subscribing to you. I’ll be in Bangkok early next year
I am happy to hear that I helped you, Enjoy your trip to Bangkok.
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. It is really helpful! We are halfway done now, waiting for CAAT approval and then NBTC when we get there in April. Thanks again!
Glad i could help 🙏
By the way, when you went to NBTC office, did you print out any documents to show them?
We are thinking to go to their office when arriving so we can get it done in a day. But I'm not sure if they still accepting the application by hand or online only
I didn't print it. They help me to fill the documents right on there pc and accepted them right away
@@jenixtravelvlog It is nice to know that they were helpful. Thanks a lot for your response. Have a good one!
Hello again. NBTC question. When i fill out the registration of drone form under documents, what does "Legal result" (3.1) mean? What document do you want there.
Hi, I don't remember, I tried to enter the registration form to check it but currently they have server error 500 so I will try to check another day for you
Thanks, super useful video! I have one question: which address do you need to fill in for the CAAT registration? There where it says "Address as shown on passport". The fields indicate that's a Thai address, however I don't have that on my passport.
Would be awesome if you could help me understand! Traveling to Thailand in 10 days and need to register my drone still. Thank you!
Glad I helped you!
The address if I remember right is the place/hotel of your first stay it Thailand
Great video! I’ll be visiting thailand next week. I heard it takes 2 weeks for CAAT registration process. As i’ll be visiting for 8-9 days it doesn’t make any sense if i recieve CAAT registration that late.
If i apply through FEIC today..will i be getting both of the registrations in 7-10 days.
I tried to contact FEIC through their mail and chat support but got no response.
Thanks! It's taking up to 2 weeks but you should get it much fasted. I got the CAAT registration approval within 2 working days. I heard that EFIC offer full registration on CAAT and NBTC for 1500 THB but i didn't try this. Hope you figure it out 🙏
Excellent video. Who check if you have all the papers etc. Police, park ranger???
Thank you!
In my trip nobody asked for the documents but any police or park ranger can ask for
How far ahead can you register your drone? Like is there a time limit. I am coming to Bangkok in february, can i register my drone now? @@jenixtravelvlog
@NorthSurvival I talked about it in the begining of the video
@@NorthSurvivalI don't remamber if it's valid for 3 month or a year so you better register at CAAT like a month before your flight
What phonenumber should i use in the NBTC registration, will my normal swedish mobilenumber work?@@jenixtravelvlog
Great video. thanks for the help. Just wanted to doa question. On the Owner's delcaration Form that you have to fill for the NBTC on the adress/telephone number you fill the temporary informations of your hotesl and your sim card you get when in Thailand or the one's from your country. Thanks in advance for everything mate!
Thank you! In the declaration on NBTC you fill the address of your first hotel you stay in, about the telephone number I filled my home country phone although we got local sim at the airport.
so helpfull mate, thank you so much
@@jenixtravelvlog
From what i have read when you receive the email with your approved NBTC Registration Document, it is secured with a Password and the needed Password is sent to that very phone number you entered in the form. So will it work to write my swedish phone number when i am in thailand, and receive the "password" and did you get this password?@@jenixtravelvlog
What a fucking hustle
Agree 💯
Thanks for your video! One more question, what address do you put on the CAAT registration form? Is it an address in your country or an address in Thailand?
In the CAAT you put your home country address and in NBTC you put the address of your first stay in Thailand
Thank you Very much!@@jenixtravelvlog
how to make all documents in one pdf file? why I can't send multiple files with jpeg?
You will see that you can choose and upload only one single file thats why you need to include all the docs in one pdf. You can combine PDFs online for free to make them a single file
So there is an easier way. FEIC provide a registration service that costs about 1500BHT, all you do is send them all the details and photos and FEIC do everything for you. Much easier, plus you can start the registration before arriving. I know this because I did it myself last week
I seen this option, how long does it take them to complete the registration?
@@jenixtravelvlog they say up to 2 weeks. When you arrive, you need to send FEIC a picture of your immigration arrival stamp, they then send it to the CAAT to complete registration.
@@N1NJAKIDD so it's might take more time then doing it yourself. I guess doing yourself is faster and cheaper
@@jenixtravelvlog the benefit is ppl can start the registration process before arriving into the country like myself which cuts down some of the time. Its only CAAT registration that requires you to be in the country, so 2/3 of the process is already completed before you touch down. And I'm sure the CAAT is probably quicker than 2 weeks, I guess a couple days or so. I land in Thailand tomorrow, so can report back on exactly how long the process took from arrival
@@N1NJAKIDD Yes update please, i am curious to know how long it will take. Have a great trip!
By the way I got more videos about Thailand in my channel, they might help you plan your trip :)
Hi, great video! 1 question. I have bought the insurance for my drone. currently in the process of registering with CAAT. Do I need to have visa stamp on my passport to register with CAAT?
Thank you!
No, the visa you need only for the NBTC registration when you arrive to Thailand
OMG thank you for the reply. I really appreciate it! For NBTC, do they need visa only or do they need the immigration stamped visa? I am from Pakistan and I already have my thailand visa. So I am just confused if NBTC's requirement is the immigration stamp when you enter the country or just the visa@@jenixtravelvlog
@@user-bu8iu9sj7x you need to add the immigration stamp to the NBTC request
what if we are not visiting Bangkok? Can the NTBC procedure be done in other areas in Thailand?
Thanks.
You can do it online, it's will just take a little longer. I think there is another office in Phuket area
can i register to the nbtc before I'm landing in Bangkok / in Thailand ? im flying in 10 days so ill have the acceptation before im landing
You sended me the message on Instagram right?
Anyway, to register at NBTC you need the visa stamp that you receive at arrival so unfortunately you can do this step only at arrival to Thailand
What does it mean by copy of passport of the drone controller
I guess that new drones got some passport. My old one had no documents of that kind so I didn't attach it to the request.
That's just a bad translation from Thai to English. The real meaning is "Passport of the drone Operator". Which is your passport and/or passports of other people who are going to use your drone (can be multiple people per registration)
Hey, do you know if it's guaranteed that once I pay that over 200 bth fee for NBTC, I will get the final approval the following day? I've read it takes up to 2 weeks. If it would be the following day, I'd be good cause I'll be still in Bangkok and then wanna use the drone in Krabi. But if it took 2 weeks for them to give me the document, that's when my trip is almost over!
What can take time is the first approval (accept your docs and send you the fee bill) of NBTC, that's why I decided to go to there office to make it quick. Ones you pay the fee you receive the final approval in one day or even same day
@@jenixtravelvlog Thank you for the info, appreciate it!
Where can I see on CAAT website if I uploaded well the all documents? I have done my last night, I just wanted to save it first and get ready the documents then I find out “save” button is submitted my request. Then I started over to upload all docs in 1 pdf. But both look like the same in the history. I’m going to travel in 2 weeks, I wanna do it right. Thank you
You need to upload all information at ones and send it. There is a window where you can see the status of your application
@@jenixtravelvlog thank you, I uploaded it all in 1 PDF the second time, but both lines show the Status: “Requested”. First time I missed the docs, second time I uploaded. Hope they will answer very soon, so I can fix it if I need to. It was a great and very informative video, Thank you.
You welcome thanks for watching 😊
In the part when you fill the CAAT form, the address and etc you need to put the Thai address of the hotel or your country address mate? Because I filed my Greek address and etc filling it. Is that wrong. Thanks in advance!
In CAAT you need to fill your home address in Greece and in the NBTC you need to fill the address of your first hotel you stay in Thailand
Thank you so much buddy. Appreciate your helpful video!
@@maraiakar You welcome 🙂
@@jenixtravelvlog This contradicts what you advised in a different comment. What is the correct answer please? Which address for CAAT as it seems to want a Thailand address
Which address should i put in on CAAT im gonna be in thailand 3 cities in 2 weeks
The first hotel you going to stay
so in total i'm spending around 1700 baht for registration right?
The insurance is 1590 and the NBTC fee is around 200 so it's around 1800 in total
Apart from this is anything required for Drone
I don't get your point
You bought drone in yr country or in thailand?
In my country
Step 3 is way too long for visitors who visits Thailand for 3 days only. They could have made a better payment options for the NBTC fee.
Yes I agree with you. I was traveling for 3 weeks with only 3 days in Bangkok and thats why I went to NBTC office right after check in in the hotel
So much work for it. Why does it have to be so difficult there. Also takes so much time if you are only there for a few weeks
Totally agree with you but at the end of the day it worth the beautiful drone shots. My next trip will be in Europe and there it's even worse
@@jenixtravelvlog I had it all with ez when registrering in EU
@@xts_eddy9527 I didn't found how to register drone for non EU citizen
What a headache, just to fly a drone. Fuck that - I’ll just bring my Sony camera instead and do handheld.
In Europe it's much harder trust me. In Thailand it's streat forward and not thet long as it seams. Don't miss shooting aerials in Thailand!
Worthless if your going for a few weeks
Maybe, we travel for 3 weeks and I captured some awesome videos with the drone. You can see in my next vlogs
